Objective To improve the diagnosis and therapy level of the uterine intravenous eiomyomatosis, we reported one case involving the right heart and reviewed the relative literatures.Methods and results The patient is 38 years old, she was admitted to hospital with fever, abdominal pain and chest tightness for one week in July 2010. She had a total hysterectomy owing to hysteromyoma in 2003. In July 2010, because she wanted a baby with the method of surrogate pregnancy, so she was injected medicine to stimulate follicle growth in the USA. The medicine was Li ShenBao injection, the total of 12d daily 3 branch (dose not stated). Afterward she couldn't stand fever, abdominal distension and chest tightness, she returned to China for treatment. After she was hospitalized, for diagnosis she got many image examination done, such as B-scan, CT, MRI and PET/CT. Result All image examination found that a massive solid and cystic tumor in the abdominal and pelvic cavity, left kidney hydrocele, ascites, and tumor embolus in the right atrium, inferior caval vein, left renal vein, also bilateral iliac vein. The thoracic-abdominal surgery was carried out, massive tumor was removed, also the tumor embolus in the right atrium and inferior caval vein. The pathological diagnosis was uterine intravenous leiomyomatosis. Conclusion Uterine intravenous leiomyomatosis is a rare disease, involving to heart case is seldomness. In recent years, the case increasing could be related with the usage count of sex hormone in Assisted Reproductive Technology. The imaging examination can give a confident diagnosis, and the final diagnosis depend on pathology. For treatment, surgery is the first choice, and must be thorough to prevent recurrence.

Objective: To observe the ultrasound characteristics of galactostasis at various physiological stages, so as to improve the diagnosis of galactostasis. Methods: The ultrasound data of 56 patients with galactostasis were retrospectively analyzed and the ultrasound characteristics were summarized. The ultrasonic manifestations of different physiological stages were compared. Results: During the lactation period,there were extensive mammary duct ectasias and floating weak signals were found in the mammary duct during pure galactostasis; large non-responsive fluid areas exhibited formations of honeycomb-like multilocular fibrous septa; and these cavities ruptured with abscess when secondary infection occurred. During the later lactation period,the dilated galactophores became hypoechoic or anechoic,which,together with the dot-like echoes of residual breast milk or macular strong echoes, formed mixed signals of retention cysts. After menopause, the galactophores atrophy occurred; the accumulation of galactostasis desiccated into patches or powder, which caused thick hyperechoic dots or multiple hyperechoic streaks in the galactophores or parenchyma. Conclusion: Ultrasonic images of galactostasis vary with the physiological and pathological changes of the mammary glands, and are related to the duration of galactostasis, absorption, concentration and desiccation of lactation.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the risk factors,pathogens and drug sensitivity test of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in ICU. METHODS:A case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 190 patients receiving mechanical ventilatory support in ICU. RESULTS:The incidence of VAP in our hospital was 48.4%;elderly patients(>65 years),duration of mechanical ventilation(>5 d),use of corticosteroids,antacid drugs,indwelling stomach tube,and combined use of antibiotics were the risk factors of VAP;among the 162 pathogens,39 were Gram-positive bacteria(24.07%),102 were Gram-negative bacte-ria (62.96%),21 were fungi (12.96%);multi-drug resistance existed in most pathogens. CONCLUSIONS:A variety of factors are closely associated with the incidence of VAP;the main pathogens of VAP are Gram-negative bacteria;the phenomenon of multi-drug resistance is common. Some measures are adopted to decrease the incidence of VAP,such as strengthen monitoring of el-derly patients,to improve their immunity;use hormonal drugs reasonably;shorten the course of mechanical ventilation as much as possible,and plan ventilator removal;elevate the head of the bed and clean the oral for patients receiving gastric canal implantation and enteral nutrition;clean hands in accordance with asepsis principle strictly,and use antibacterials reasonalbly.

Objective To observe the influences of infusion with normal saline (NS), Ringer solution and hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 sodium chloride on blood coagulation/fibrinolysis in rabbits with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) induced by two-hit of oleic acid (OA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS).Methods According to random number table, 40 healthy adult male rabbits were divided into sham operation, model, NS, Ringer and colloid groups (8 rabbits in each group). The ARDS model was replicated by sequential injection of OA (0.1 mL/kg) and LPS (500μg/kg) into the ear marginal vein of rabbit. Immediately after injection of LPS, the NS, Ringer and colloid groups were treated by intravenous infusion of NS, lactate Ringer solution and hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 sodium chloride, respectively at a speed of 7 mL·kg-1·h-1 for 210 minutes. There was no liquid infusion in model and sham operation groups. At 30 minutes and 210 minutes after LPS injection, the arterial blood was collected and the partial pressure of arterial blood oxygen (PaO2) was measured and the oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2) was calculated. At 5, 30, 120 and 210 minutes after LPS injection, venous blood was collected, and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), fibrinogen (Fib), antithrombase Ⅲ (AT-Ⅲ), serum procollagen peptide Ⅲ (PⅢP), tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) were measured, respectively. After the rabbits were killed by bloodletting at the end of experiment, the lung tissues were obtained, collagen Ⅰ and collagen Ⅲ in lung tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry staining, lung wet/dry weight ratio (W/D) and pathologic score of lung tissues were calculated.Results Compared with sham operation group, at 30 minutes and 210 minutes in model group the levels of PaO2/FiO2 were significantly decreased, and the lung W/D ratios as well as pathologic scores of pulmonary tissues were increased. In model group, the APTT began from 30 minutes while the PT began from 120 minutes to gradually prolong, and the value of Fib was progressively decreased; with a tendency of mild decline, the levels of AT-Ⅲ at all time-points were lower in model group than those in sham operation group (allP < 0.05). The levels of t-PA and PⅢP at all time-points were significantly higher, and the expression levels of collagen Ⅰ and collagen Ⅲ in model group were obviously more strengthened compared to those in sham operation group. Among the three infusion groups, the improvement degrees of PaO2/FiO2, lung W/D ratio and pathologic score of pulmonary tissues were the highest in NS group, lowest in colloid group, and no significant changes in Ringer group. APTT in NS group except 120 minutes was longer, the APTTs at 30 minutes and 210 minutes were shorter in NS group than those in model group (s: 30 minutes: 52.26±18.65 vs. 76.22±16.64, 120 minutes: 90.60±10.66 vs. 83.01±15.88, 210 minutes: 70.44±17.80 vs. 77.04±13.32, allP < 0.05); the prolongation of amplitudes of APTT in Ringer and colloid groups were greater than that in model group, particularly in colloid group, the greatest; the PT in three infusion groups were gradually prolonged, and at 120 minutes and 210 minutes were all longer than that in model group (allP < 0.05). The levels of Fib in those treatment groups were all gradually decreased, the amplitude descent of Fib in NS group was the smallest and that in colloid group, the biggest; the levels of AT-Ⅲ in three infusion groups and model group had similar decline tendency, the descending amplitude being the most significant in colloid group. The levels of t-PA at all time-points in the three treatment groups were lower than those in model group (allP < 0.05). The levels of PⅢP in serum at all time-points were lower in Ringer and NS groups than those in model group (μg/L: Ringer group: 5 minutes: 250.60±36.53 vs. 285.77±65.55, 30 minutes: 248.73±44.41 vs. 302.16±37.73, 120 minutes: 249.14±43.16 vs. 296.09±38.64, 210 minutes: 246.62±44.72 vs. 295.45±42.75; NS group: 5 minutes: 261.89±50.74 vs. 285.77±65.55, 30 minutes: 247.71±50.40 vs. 302.16±37.73, 120 minutes: 246.58±42.27 vs. 296.09±38.64, 210 minutes: 222.73±18.51 vs. 295.45±42.75, allP < 0.05), but there were no statistically significant differences between the colloid group and model group. The expression levels of collagen Ⅰ and collagen Ⅲ in all liquid infusion groups were lower than those in model group (P < 0.05 orP < 0.01), whereas in colloid group were higher than those in NS and Ringer groups (allP < 0.05).Conclusions The infusion of NS, lactate Ringer solution and hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 sodium chloride have different influences on the blood coagulation function in ARDS rabbits, among which the effect of NS is the least, while of the hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 sodium chloride appears the greatest. The infusion of these three liquids can all decrease the pulmonary fibrous tissue in rabbits with ARDS, and in the mean time can alleviate the lung tissue pathological lesion for a certain degree, the effect of NS and Ringer solution being greater than that of hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 sodium chloride.
